  @JoenB75 ...

  We'll trade you Trump for Merkel, 500 million in cash, and a first round draft pick next year.

  I’ve also seen people boxing, and there is a couple that often practices knife throwing.... By the way, I also train with swords and sais in the park as well.

  @jp1492 ...

  I must be boring. I do golf and tennis. Very boring I guess.

  Crime is d own this year in most major cities

  silentbuddha ...

  I'm not sure where you are getting your facts from but the top 5 (major cities as you call them, NY, LA, Chicago, Houston, Phoenix) have had significant increases in crime this year. Where are you getting your "facts" from?

  Yes, there has been crime as long as we can remember. Under 8 years of Obama, there was crime. Under 8 years of Bush the Younger, there was crime. Under 8 years of Clinton, there was crime ... go back as even further if you want.

  But what has lit the fuse for this country to go crazy? Elections ? Trump ? Just a volcano waiting to erupt ?

  I don't get it. Crime has overall been coming down over the past 20 years and now things are erupting all over.

  Any thoughts ?

  Rub, if you really don’t want to contribute to a thread why do this stuff? ..... The class clown 🤡 strikes again.

  Min .....

  Am I really a class clown? I view some of my thoughts (some may disagree) as observing the absurdities of our existence.

  I mean you have to agree posing in public like jp1492 with the broom thing could cause some odd stares by neighbors and people walking down the sidewalk. He wasn't doing this in some gym or enclosed area.

  Similar to seeing Jethro Tull concerts. I remember Ian Anderson, the lead singer and flautist. He wore odd-looking clothes like from a Peter Pan movie, tights, pointy boots and played the flute standing on one foot with the other foot twisted into his crotch somehow. Great music, went to the concerts at least three times. A lot of hit songs (especially from the Aqualung album). But if I did that in the front yard in public I would likely have a social worker knocking on my door Monday morning.

  That's all. I really didn't think that was "class clown" material.

  Min, ok, I guess I didn't make a contribution.

  I stand corrected.

  Maybe if you had seen the faces on the people walking down the sidewalk when I was doing that stuff with the mop handle you would understand.

  I any case, I stand corrected. I will improve.

  Maybe if people don't like vaccines, just home school and leave the rest of humanity alone.

  Reminds me of a movie (I can't remember the title) where a guy gets confronted by someone doing karate moves with sticks and a lot of other stuff and starts screaming different words and things.

  The guy just pulls out a gun, shoots him, and walks away.

  Noah's Ark : A structure that could never have been built in Noah's day

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  2. beliefs

  the ark encounter located in kentucky (opened in 2016) is a large representation of noah's ark based on the genesis flood narrative contained in the bible.

  it is 510 feet (155 m) long, 85 feet (26 m) wide, and 51 feet (16 m) high.. .

  genesis 6: 14 so make yourself an ark of cypress[c] wood; make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out.

  When you have a house built, you deal with the contractor, in this case Noah. To actually get the work done, as is typical in any construction project, you subcontract out most of the actual work.

  God was the architect, drawing up the plans. Noah was the contractor to make sure the project was on plan and on budget. Who knows how many smaller companies were involved in the actual work.

  I liked that pic by jp1692 with big mop handle.

  I used a broom handle and went into my front yard and did some poses. I got some strange looks from the neighbors.
